Enforcement of Article 48 of the Constitution of India related to cow slaughter in its real sense has been the long waited gap and the study will concentrate on providing adequate and positive analysis of existing Law. Cow-question now a day is a very sensitive issue in Indian society. If this is not tackled in a responsible way, the harmony of the society will suffer seriously. This paper describes the Constitutional, Judicial, and Legislative framework of cow slaughtering in India and proposes the significance of balance between the eating habits of people of different States and cow slaughter in India. A proper analysis and perfect formulation of the problem will pave a reliable way to avoid unnecessary societal tension by the way of suggesting a proper measure to deal with the problem. This paper puts forth the need of a constitutional amendment so that a central law is made for the whole nation.
